Why our Bronze Duke of Edinburgh Award Expeditions’ are so good

A unique feature of Outdoor Actives’ Duke of Edinburgh Award expeditions is the amount of choice we give you and the flexibility of our packages. We have designed 4 different options for the Bronze Award.

1 day training in school – On this day our experienced staff come to your school, college, university, or a suitable place of your choice and deliver a day packed full of interesting training scenarios that put in place the fundamental building blocks needed on your expedition.

2 day Training Expedition – This is the start of the student’s time looking at the skills they need in the “real” outdoor environment. Obviously, we do this gradually and, the first day will include meeting the staff, look at camping skills, and cooking with stoves. The second day will build on the foundations laid down in day one with more time developing the skills needed to successfully move onto a self sufficient practice expedition.

2 day Qualifying Expedition – This is the real “nitty and gritty” of the whole process up to this point. The students will be expected to be self sufficient for 2 days and one night having planned their route, food needs emergency procedures etc. Obviously, we are realistic with this and do a thorough check of their kit, route cards, safety strategies etc before they set off. Following completion of the expedition we will have a roundup of events, and a “what to do next” chat.

5 day package – We run all three of the above elements of the D of E Bronze Award expedition as a package. This is discounted and represents the best method to arrange the whole process as continuity is maintained, and relationships can be built.
